what would the british term for it be?
I don't know that there is a treatment program for attention whores, Ivan. At least not a successful one. With the american media the way it is, even washed up old "stars" get back on TV in one way or another, eventually. this lady's 15 minutes should have been up long ago, but thanks to cable, probably will never end. One of the wonders of living in the "information age" I guess. We'll never stop hearing more information about her.
Oh we'd say she's barmy. Which she is.
She's just getting her 15 minutes of fame in my view. The problem is that it's much more than 15 minutes. And at the moment I'm staying in a place that has Fox News - I would really rather not be seeing this.
Regards, Ivan
Perhaps she'll eventually turn up on that VH-1 show about has-been celebrities living together in one house, and she'll hook up with FlavaFlav or that guy from the Brady Bunch.
